Quinns Rocks

Quinns Beach in Perth's northern suburbs is closed after a shark is spotted swimming on the wrong side of the beach's protective shark net, as the company which manages the net says it has no idea how the animal got inside the enclosure.

Firefighting helicopters belonging to Western Australia's Fire and Emergency Services Authority (FESA) fill their tanks with water from Nowergup Dam, north of Perth. The helicopters were on their way to fight fires near Quinns Rocks, March 26, 2008.
